Thanks to Jesus Jack for reminding us about this from the Grimsby site. Make your predictions and see if we stay up.

Personally, I was lazy and only predicted the Swans results and let the computer randomly choose the results for the other teams (it's claimed that those results are based on current form).

With my choices, Swansea end with 38 points and comfortably stay up with a couple of matches to spare. But when I ran it three times, the relegated teams (chosen with random results remember) were different each time except for West Brom who were always relegated.

Managers come & go Joe Allen would be the cog in the middle of our midfield for the next 7 years.

But no surprise you disagree with me

You're thinking like Jenkins.

Huw/Pencs -"Hi Carlos. I'm a bit short of ideas for reinforcements so I want to sign this midfielder who used to play for us. He can be the cog in our midfield for seven years. And the fans love him so they might take the heat off me for a bit"

Carlos - "Hi Huw/Pencs. Thank you but no. I don't want him. He's a decent player but I think we can get better for cheaper if we scouted more thoroughly"

I hope we are on the ball for players the manager wants, not the fans.

Spot on! The manager seems to want high energy box to box types in his midfield. Lets give him that. I find it quite refreshing that a manager expects his midfielders to attack and defend, back to the old days.

Fans criticise Jenkins constantly for getting too involved with transfers but when it’s suits it’s ok. If Carvalhal doesn’t want a certain player then he should not be signed, regardless of what he kind or the fans think. I very much doubt Carvalhal would turn his nose up at joey but the fee would play a major part.

You're not alone - I had swans 10th too (45 points!!). However, I did a previous one and I had us finishing on 41 points. I'll remove rose coloured specs later on and give it another go. I had Brighton, Stoke and West Brom relegated with 31 points (Huddersfield) being sufficient for safety. This would be at odds with all recent stats with 38 points being sufficient (34 points the lowest) for survival during our PL time. What do I know eh.

Indeed ..... but as with any relegated club Id imagine the fee would be cheaper.

Joe Allen would improve our midfield anyone who does not think that is an idiot.

Great minds think alike! I ended up with us at 44pts 😊 Based on last 7 games, we're joint 4th bases on 2pts a game. Forgetting the detail, in overall terms, if that fantastic return dropped to 1pts a game, we'd still end up with 38pts. 1.5pts a game gets us to ~44pts. Hard to keep the optimism under control!! 😊
